Rising from the Ashes (Andrew and Lauren) novel Chapter 13

Chapter 13 Andrew replied calmly , Oh well , its not like they were much of use to him anyway .

Nyla looked puzzled , not quite understanding his meaning .

However , Andrew did not .

elaborate further .

With his medical expertise , he had long ago diagnosed Philips issues with impotence and premature ejaculation .

Hence , his penis was practically useless .

Suddenly , the office door burst open .

Bernard stormed in with a group of hospital staff , his face turning ashen at the sight of Philip writhing on the floor and clutching his crotch .

Dr.

Lloyd , as a medical professional , youve violated ethics by assaulting a colleague .

Do you understand the consequences ? Bernard growled A doctor examining Philip exclaimed , This is bad , really bad ! Bernards face paled .

What is it ? Did this bastard kill my son ? The doctor shook his head .

No , Dr.

Philips just unconscious .

But Im afraid … his ability to have children may be permanently compromised .

The room fell silent , shocked gazes filled with pity directed at Philip .

A man having his most prized possession taken away was simply unimaginable , and any man would rather die than that happening to them .

! Bernards eyes flashed with purderous intent .

Dr.

Lloyd , youre dead .

Philip is my only son .

Ill make you wish you were never born ! Andrew smirked .

Your beast of a son sexually harassing a nurse in the office ? Arent you going to say anything about that ? Nyla stepped forward , tear stains still visible on her face .

Dr.

Hackett , Dr.

Lloyd isnt lying .

Dr.

Philip … tried to force himself on me .

If Dr.

Lloyd hadnt arrived in time , I would have been … violated ! The other staff members exchanged uncomfortable glances .

Philips disheveled state and exposed underwear painted a clear picture of what he had been up to before passing out .

Bernard wore a grim expression .

All of a sudden , be raised his hand and slapped Nyla , exclaiming , Nonsense ! Youre nothing but a lowly nurse .

How dare you conspire with Dr.

Lloyd to slander my son ? Ill make you both pay ! Nyla cowered , covering her head as she burst into tears .

Dr.

Hackett , Im not lying ! Everything I said is true ! Bernards sudden aggression stunned the other staff members .

Dr.

Hackett , you cant do this ! Dr.

Hackett , lets talk this out .

Violence isnt the answer ! Despite the protests , no one dared to intervene .

The hospitals chief was rarely seen , leaving Bernard , as deputy chief , to rule with an Iron fist His vindictive nature meant that anyone hoping to keep their job had to tread carefully around him .

Suddenly , a hand shot out and gripped Bernards wrist tightly .

Bernard howled in pain and rage .

Andrew , you bastard ! How dare you lay your hands on me ! Ill have you torn to shreds ! The staff watched in disbelief as Andrew , usually mild mannered , showed such ferocity .

First , he had incapacitated the son .

The next second , he was manhandling the father .

They could not help but wonder if Andrew was trying to take down both the Hackett father son duo .

Andy , let go of Dr.

Hackett right now ! Andy , youve lost your mind ! You cant assault your superior like this ! Bernard , Andys young and impulsive .
